Maybe K would scoff at her bravado or see through her bluff, but she clung to hope as long as she could keep
pushing forward.
Ariana braced herself for K's reaction, but he remained silent, lowering his gun and walking toward her instead.
“Stay back!” Ariana said fiercely.
“Don’t cany closer, or I'll shoot!”
K was only a few steps away, and with each one, Ariana’s heartbeat quickened.
She tried to frighten him off, but she knew it was probably useless.
Sure enough, K remained unbothered, moving closer like a predator eying its prey.
“Stop! Don’t cany nearer!” Ariana shouted, terror flooding her, her hands shaking but still gripping the gun.
She added, “One more step, and I'll kill you! | mean it! I've killed before, and I'll do whatever it takes to survive!”

Although the entire encounter was fleeting, Ariana felt as though she were still in a dream long after K's
